“Unbeatable location, but the rooms need a major refresh!”
I chose this hotel for the location, and it didn't disappoint. Being within walking distance of Anakeesta and the main Gatlinburg town attractions made our trip very convenient. We also had a balcony with a mountain view, which was easily the highlight of the stay.
